Excerpt from Against Wind and Tide, Vol. 2 of 3

Sir Philip Nugent's glance followed the sweep Of Lady Lowther's hand, and paused, at last, upon the laughing face of Phyllis. When Phyllis laughed, She had a pretty way of throwing back her head, a gesture which displayed the smooth whiteness and exquisite setting on of her neck; then She opened her mouth, and disclosed two tiny even rows of pearls, shining in an arch of vivid coral, and the laugh rang out soft and clear as a peal of bells over her pouting lips. Sir Philip's glance, pausing on this bright vision, lingered there half absently. Lady Eleanor con tinned to rhapsodize, and forgave him that he did not listen. She was a woman of the world, worldly - also, she was a mother with three daughters to marry.
